To: The Council of Sanctuary From: Spellguard Agent Daheron Date: Hammer 11th, Year 152 of our founding Subject: "Lord" Bunge and his kobolds

Esteemed members of the Council,

As you know, we are allied with the Shadow Tribe kobolds and so far have seen no ill from this arrangement. The Shadow Tribe is considering merging the exiled kobold leader "Lord" Bunge and his kobolds into their fold, but this will not happen until the exile upon the kobold troop is lifted. As I have come to understand, the kobold leader was exiled for eating former Sheriff Walter's boots.

I hardly consider this a crime fitting exile, even for a kobold, and given what we now know about Walter's activities, it seems the kobold may as well receive a pat on the back instead of exile. In my opinion, the exile upon the kobold and his tribe should be lifted, whilst adherring to the monstrous races laws until the tribe has merged with the shadow kobolds. I have seen no threat or hostility from this creature and this harmless gesture may better improve our relationship with the nearby shadow dragon.

Respectfully, Spellguard Agent Daheron The Spellguard Tower

*a letter is returned to the Agent*

Dear sir,

I would politely remind you that currently the only kobolds that are even allowed to set foot inside our city are Ambassador Gaptooth and his entourage. Because the ambassador requires diplomatic immunity to perform his duties, he and his guards are exempt from the law that disallows him to pass into our territory.

Furthermore, I would also tell you that as of yet no alliance has been signed between the Shadow Tribe and Sanctuary, though plans for such an alliance are in the making.

Sincerely,

Dugo Nish, Councillor
